Different scientific fields like biology or physics develop applications where a successful nano-object manipulation is peremptory. In the aim of realizing a useful multi-sensory interface allowing thus, human presence in the nano-world, we present in this paper the first results from the one-degree of freedom (DOF) nano-manipulator developments that connects an Atomic Force Microscope (AFM) with our Force Feedback Gestural Device (FFGD). The application of the AFM-FFGD coupling contains a redefining of the real-time remote-control handling, bringing in the concept of mixed reality. The designed models described in this paper represent the basis of the virtual reconstruction of a nano-scene.
